A sample of gaseous PCl5 was introduced into an evacuated flask so that the pressure of pure PCl5 would be 0.50 atm at 523 K. Ho

wever, PCl5 decomposes to gaseous PCl3 and Cl2, and the actual pressure in the flask was found to be 0.78 atm. Calculate Kp for the decomposition reaction PCl5(g) PCl3(g) Cl2(g) at 523 K. Also, calculate K at this temperature.

Answer:

Kp = 0.35 & Kc = 0.0075

Explanation:

                                PCl₅ ⇄ PCl₃ + Cl₂

Initial(atm)                 0.5         0       0

At equilibrium         0.5 - p      p       p

  • Total pressure at equilibrium = 0.78
  • 0.5 - p + p + p = 0.78
  • p = 0.28

So partial pressure of PCl₅ = 0.5 - 0.28 = 0.22 atm

Similarly PCl₃ = 0.28 atm & Cl₂ = 0.28 atm

According to law of mass action

     

  •                  Kp     =       \frac{(Ppcl3)(Pcl2)}{(Ppcl5)}
  •                  Kp     =     \frac{(0.28)(0.28)}{(0.22)}
  •                  Kp     =     0.35

We know Kp = Kc x (RT)Δng

               Δng = change in gaseous moles

                       = product moles - reactant moles

                       = 2 - 1

                        = 1

R = universal gas constant = 0.0821 lit. atm. mol⁻¹. K⁻¹

 So Kc = \frac{(0.35) }{(0.0821 )(523 K)}

            = 0.0081

How many pounds in a 3.00 l bottle of drinking water?
slava [35]

Answer:

             6.61 Pounds

Solution:

Step 1: Calculate Mass of Water as;

                        Density  =  Mass  ÷  Volume

Solving for Mass,

                        Mass  =  Density  ×  Volume   ------ (1)

As,

                        Density of Water  =  1 g.cm⁻³

And,

                        3 L of Water  =  3000 cm³

Putting values in equation 1,

                        Mass  =  1 g.cm⁻³  × 3000 cm³

                        Mass  =  3000 g

Step 2: Convert Grams into Pounds;

As,

                        1 Gram  =  0.002204 Pounds

So,

                        3000 Grams  =  X Pounds

Solving for X,

                      X =  (3000 Grams  ×  0.002204 Pounds)  ÷  1 Gram

                      X =  6.61 Pounds

What is one of the primary unanswered questions about the origin of the universe? What type of elements formed first? Approximat
torisob [31]

Answer: last option, what came before the big bang?

Explanation:

The big bang theory states that the universe started as a dense nucleus of matter: a huge amount of matter concentrated in a tiny spot.

This is the conclusion of equations and evidences that prove that the universe has been and continuous to expand: since it has been expanding, there was a moment when it was as small and dense as it is possible.

So, the expansion is the result of violent explosion.

The time during which the expansion has been happening (this is how long ago the big bang occured) has been estimated thanks the the observation of the speed of recesion of the galaxies, but nothing can be told about what came before the bing bang occured.

formic acid buffer containing 0.50 M HCOOH and 0.50 M HCOONa has a pH of 3.77. What will the pH be after 0.010 mol of NaOH has b
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

pH = 3.95

Explanation:

It is possible to calculate the pH of a buffer using H-H equation.

pH = pka + log₁₀ [HCOONa] / [HCOOH]

If concentration of [HCOONa] = [HCOOH] = 0.50M and pH = 3.77:

3.77 = pka + log₁₀ [0.50] / [0.50]

<em>3.77 = pka</em>

<em />

Knowing pKa, the NaOH reacts with HCOOH, thus:

HCOOH + NaOH → HCOONa + H₂O

That means the NaOH you add reacts with HCOOH producing more HCOONa.

Initial moles of 100.0mL = 0.1000L:

[HCOOH] = (0.50mol / L) ₓ 0.1000L = 0.0500moles HCOOH

[HCOONa] = (0.50mol / L) ₓ 0.1000L = 0.0500moles HCOONa

After the reaction, moles of each species is:

0.0500moles HCOOH - 0.010 moles NaOH (Moles added of NaOH) = 0.0400 moles HCOOH

0.0500moles HCOONa + 0.010 moles NaOH (Moles added of NaOH) = 0.0600 moles HCOONa

With these moles of the buffer, you can calculate pH:

pH = 3.77 + log₁₀ [0.0600] / [0.0400]

<h3>pH = 3.95</h3>
